Knucklehead 7 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 I’m primarily a boring Budlight guy. I used to drink a six pack per 45 holes back when I was a member at a local club. I’ll occasionally have 1-3 on 18 holes, but usually none due to filming my YouTube channel. I don’t care to drink at home, I’m a light social guy at dinner. I also like an occasional margarita Quote Knucklehead Golf(YouTube) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siamese Moose 661 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Anyone else pick up bourbon collecting during the pandemic? It may be more expensive that putter collecting and you can't drink a putter out of existence. My favorites so far: Eagle Rare McKenna Bookers Maker's Mark Cask Strength Evan Williams Bonded I'm in the Ranger Club at New Riff, so I've got a collection of single barrel releases. It's amazing how different bottles of what should be the same recipe can be. That's leading me down the hole of many single barrel bottles.I find that I like what is considered "sweet" bourbons, so Woodford Reserve and Wild Turkey variants lead my list. My go to is Old Forester 1920, as well as Eagle Rare barrel strength. I tend to like the barrel proof bottles, that I dilute to my taste.Sent from my SM-T580 using MyGolfSpy mobile app 1 Quote Moose, my cat, is Siamese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozcycle 14,676 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Are there any Irish Whisky guys in here? I like bourbon, like ryes, don't care for most scotches, but have recently fallen in love with Irish Whisky. Some of my favorite everyday drinkers are Jameson Black Barrel, Tullamore Cider Cask and Writer's Tears. Redbreast 12 is great and my favorite is Green Spot.I am a Bourbon drinker by birth, born in Frankfort KY, home of Buffalo Trace Distillery.Last week being St Patrick’s Day, Jamison is in my golf flask right now. I also like Tullamore Dew. 2 Quote Driver: PXG 0211 w/Evenflo Riptide CB Regular shaft Fairways: Cobra King F8 3-4W(16*), 5-6W(20*) both w/Mitsubishi ck Blue regular shaft and Patriot 7W w/AccuLaunch 60 by Accuflex Hybrid: Cobra F8 3 Hybrid(19*) w/Recoil ES regular shaft Irons: Wilson D7 5-PW w/Recoil 460 Regular graphite shafts Wedges: Cleveland RTX Zipcore(50*/54*/58*) w/True Temper Spinner Wedge steel shaft Putter: 33" Evnroll ER2 w/Evnroll Gravity Grip Bag: Vice cart bag(Black).

PMookie 16,454 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Here’s my drink, and it started at the beach. coconut rum pineapple juice orange juice splash of cranberry SO good. I HATE bitter, so I can’t do alcoholic drinks of any kind that have any bitterness to them. Yuck. I’d rather have a Coke/Vernors/Grape soda, etc than a beer anyway, so that should tell you everything you need to know!

YourLocalJimmy 33 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 So I ran across this ad the other day for a mini keg system that is supposedly built to fit in the typical golf cart ice chest.

There is such a high demand for all of the good bourbons especially eagle rare and blanton. I usually have to go stand I'm line at the distilleries and hope I'm lucky enough to get one.

Current favorites are: 1792 Port Finish (hard to find) Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Yes, booze is much more expensive here in WA than in CA. Stopped the other day at a Liquor Barn in Redding for a few bottles on my drive back from LA. 1 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to use it for camping or sometimes in the back of the car after a soccer game. I haven't been using it recently as we have some great craft breweries and I like the variety of cans. However, some of them only have certain things on tap and not in cans. Then I take this and fill it up with the draught only beer.

JeremyD 223 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I once worked with a guy who, when I met him the first time, offered me a drink off of a bottle of Crown. I said no and he responded it wasn't a question. So I drank. Played golf with him a couple days later. His golf bag was a cooler. An actual cooler that looked like Mary Poppins' magic purse, as he kept pulling out whiskeys, beers, vodkas, mixers, and another thermos filled with bloody mary mix. On every hole was also left 4 jello shots. This was a fun crew. As for my personal preferences, I love a good Leinenkugel Summer Shandy, or any other wheat type beer. I'm not quite ready to jump on the spiked seltzer while golfing train just yet. 1 Quote When my wife asked if I wanted to leave Maine and move to where she grew up, I couldn't say no to Pinehurst, NC.
